you don't. you can use id... or classs...

Er... you can do it either way, I suggest you do it my way as using form names is much more useful for the php side of things (it is impossible to handle forms using php without the use of form names) see this article: http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/ja … -text.html but it's your thing so feel free to do it with getElementById just my suggestion is not to.

It's the parameters.

for example when you call it i think u use this:
Code:
alert(getLine(text, 5));
if text is the text in the textarea, it will say line five of the text in an alert box.
So you can create things like reporters in Javascript?
Yup. use
Code:
return

One thing, return is used for functions in returning a value I quote W3 Schools:

http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_functions.asp wrote:
The return Statement

The return statement is used to specify the value that is returned from the function.

So, functions that are going to return a value must use the return statement.

The example below returns the product of two numbers (a and b):
Example
Code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function product(a,b)
{
return a*b;
}
</script>
</head>

<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write(product(4,3));
</script>

</body>
</html>

What you can do is use

Code:

document.write('Insert Text Here');

but this will rewrite the whole page if used in a function or after the page has loaded, so it is best to use

Code:

document.getElementById('InsertIdHere').innerHTML = 'Insert Text Here';

As this only writes and replaces content within the area of that Id (You can insert one of these areas using a div tag).

Can I suggest these 'basic' HTML/JScript questions should be 'google-d' not discussed.

RUMCHEERYPOOPOO · 2011-06-07 17:37:45

I'm just proving a point, if he's googled it and got the wrong answer, or is just misinformed, better to tell him than let him struggle and fail when he needs to use it

It is a web project to allow creation and viewing of scratch projects. smile

I h8 document.write! use innerHTML!
Its easier!

No, its for server data exchange.
And are you sure the email is legit?

RUMCHEERYPOOPOO · 2011-06-08 12:20:42

PHP is for server side programming which is executed when the page is requested by your browser. The browser requests the page, the server runs the code and sends the page to the user with the output.

I'm finding a lack of things to test out on the 3DS...

P.S. Look what I found! http://3dspaint.com/

3DSfan12345 · 2011-06-08 12:58:23

I could host, advertise, test for iPod touch, and maybe even do mockups.
